As part of Ramadan assistance to various groups across Katsina State, frontline politician, Senator Yakubu Lado Danmarke, has extended the gesture to youths, women, students and journalists among others.
The gesture which was extended to various media organizations and journalists in the state, has been a tradition of Sen. Yakubu Lado for years.
During this Ramadan, Senator Lado has opened hundreds of feeding points across the state where less privileged persons receive grains and cooked food to cushion the effect of inflation and hunger on citizens.
Beneficiaries of the gesture include Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), orphans, widows, physically challenged persons and students who received various forms of scholarships.
In a remark by some residents, they observed that Lados Ramadan feeding has surpassed that of Katsina State state government which said it has spent N10 billion on Ramadan feeding.
Yakubu Lado is a former Senator, former House of Representatives member, former board member at the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and former Chairman of Kankara Local Government, and a foremost philanthropist.
